Usual price for Vogues used to be $35...which I thought was WAY too 
much...?! My Vogue
cost me 75 cents about 35 years ago; I also own one of the Vogue-based 
Mercury promo
records, bought for $9 & change from a mail-based auction list!

Record collecting should be about the CONTENTS and not the monetary 
value...?!
Sadly, we are entering an age which is governed by "Lombardi's Law"..."Money
isn't everything, it's the ONLY thing!!"
